Dazzled By Edward

In case you were wondering what happened to the Design Contest we posted about a few weeks ago… basically, we didn’t get very many entries, and most of them weren’t the right size or quality to actually be put on shirts or other merchandise. So, we’re just gonna ask any of you who may be designers to submit your Twilight-related designs to us, and they could be featured in our upcoming Cafe Press store! The designs should be at least 1000 pixels per side. For more specifics, visit our previous post here, and then contact us with your design!

We would like some feedback from you guys about our site– what do you like about it, what don’t you like about it; what should we post more of or less of; are there any features we should add or take away; is there anything you think our site is missing; etc…

So please comment below and let us know your opinion. Or, if you would rather your message be private, contact us. Thanks, we really appreciate it! ♥

P.S. Don’t be afraid to specify what you DON’T like! lol.

Tara from the Twilight Mafia sent us the following message. Help them out if you can! <3

“Subject: THE TWILIGHT MAFIA NEEDS YOUR HELP!

Body: Hey guys! It’s Tara, with the Twilight Mafia (one of Dazzled By Edward’s affies!). We’re having some staff time issues with our news blog and we need some help! Until I can get a bigger staff going, our news blog is on hiatus, and that makes me sad that we can’t bring everyone daily news… SO if you are interested in joing The Mafia News Staff, then keep on reading!

1. E-mail me at ADMIN@TWILIGHTMAFIA.COM with something like “Staff Application” in the subject line.

2. Let me know the following things in the e-mail: name, age, location, hobbies (besides twilight), how much time you’re online and could dedicate to updating the news blog, if you are already a member registered at our forum tell me what your username is, and last but not least what all computer/graphic/HTML knowledge you have.

3. If you don’t hear back from me right away, thats okay.. I’m going to wait to contact everyone that I’m interested in all at once so I’m gonna wait a bit till we get a good amount of applications in.

4. If you have ANY other questions about this opportunity, the Twilight Mafia or whatever else, don’t be afraid to contact me at that e-mail address too.

Thanks so much for reading this guys! Hope you come by and see us at TwilightMafia. com & our forums too. Talk to you soon!

♥Tara”

I just wanted to let you guys know that we’re in the process of creating a second website, dedicated to the television show Roswell that we’ve posted about on here a few times (:

We STRONGLY recommend that Twilight fans give it a chance; we guarantee that you’ll enjoy it! If you’re not sure, watch the preview video below. If you want to check it out, head on over to our Roswell page here.

We’ve added a new page to the site featuring the television show Roswell. It’s a lot like Twilight, except with aliens. (And while we loved the Twilight movie, we also believe that Roswell was casted better and contains better production elements.) On the new page we’ve even posted the first episode of Roswell for you to watch online for free (: We strongly recommend that you check it out here.

Oh, and it also has this:

P.S. We’ve edited together our Support Taylor Lautner Appreciation Video; it’s actually been done for a few days, but we’re having major issues uploading it to YouTube. We’re super annoying because we really want to show it to you! We’ll post it on here as soon as we can.

We were sent this adorable graphic on our MySpace, and we wanted to share it with you:

DazzledByEdward.com wishes you a happy holiday! ♥

In case you haven’t noticed, we’ve added a little google advertisement near the bottom of the column to the right. Basically, we get paid when you click on it. No strings attached. So, if you would just click on the ad every so often, we would greatly appreciate it

Also, our design contest ends tomorrow, Sunday Dec. 14th. Get more info here. We haven’t had very many submissions so far, so please consider sending us a design for our upcoming Cafe Press store!

Today is the last day to submit a video or picture for our Taylor Lautner Appreciation Video project. Please help show your support for Taylor’s return in the New Moon movie! Get info on how to help here.

One more thing– we haven’t been doing so well lately on the Twilight Topsites list. Help us out by clicking on their button to the right. Thanks!

We’ve decided to host a contest to come up with the best designs for our upcoming Cafe Press store
Here’s what to do:

1. Download a template by clicking here.
2. Create a design that expresses your love for Edward Cullen.
-(JPG files should be no more than 7 MB, and PNG files should be no more than 4 MB.)
-Do not use pictures from the movie or book covers. Anything that is considered to “infringe on the rights of a third a party” is unacceptable.
-Also be aware that any white in your design will not show up as the color of the shirt or whatever the design is printed on.
-(If you have any other questions, visit the Cafe Press Beginner’s Image Workshop page here.)
-See some examples here.
3. Email your design as an attachment to dazzledbyedwardcullen@ymail.com

The best designs will be featured on our site and in our store when it opens! Be sure to submit your designs by Sunday, December 14th, and we’ll announce the winners later that week.

One of our affiliates, Pattinson Online, may be forced to shut down their site within a month for lack of funding. Their site is a really comprehensive Robert Pattinson fan site, and just earlier today I was considering telling you all to check out their site for your more Rob-obsessed inclinations. They are asking for donations as a last resort in hopes of keeping their site running. Please take a look at their post here.

I just wanted to a moment to remind you guys to comment our posts! We really love to hear what you have to say about whatever we’re posting. (And we realize that it asks for your email when you go to comment, and we assure you that is just to protect against spam, and you will not get any emails because of this! Check out our FAQ here for more information.)

Also, a special thanks to anyone who has sent us news over the past week weeks, it’s greatly appreciated! If you have any updates you’d like to share, please contact us

One more thing: We’ll be hanging out in our Chatroom on Friday to share our excitement and opinions on the movie with you, and you’re invited to join in and do the same So be sure to stop by after you see the Twilight movie and chat!
